Working on the Multiple blog managing plugin, I faced a few issues with JQuery. There were some conflicts with other plugins installed. Either this plugin was having problem in working or some others plugins stopped working. I thought of calling the scripts only when this particular plugin page is loaded. Wordpress actions has an option to do this. This code explains the way it can be done.
I am not sure, if this is the right way to avoid conflicts, but its work right for my case.
There are some other methods like using the jQuery.noConflict() function to avoid conflicts in jQuery.
function kish_multi_wp_add_admin() {
$plugin_page=add_options_page('Kish Multi WP', 'Kish Multi WP', 8, 'kish-multi-wp', 'kish_multi_wp_option');
add_action( 'admin_head-'. $plugin_page, 'kish_multi_wp_addHeaderCode' );
add_action( 'admin_head-'. $plugin_page, 'add_tinymce' );
add_action( 'admin_head-'. $plugin_page, 'kish_multi_wp_style' );
}
add_action('admin_menu', 'kish_multi_wp_add_admin');
The first function add_action is called only when the plugin page is loaded. This sorted out many of my conflict issues
